There are many factors that can leave our skin feeling undernourished and just plain tired, especially as we get older. And while slathering on every expensive cream and hyaluronic acid you can find will help, the best course of action is to consult with a skincare professional at Euro Image Med Spa. We offer a wide range of treatments aimed at helping you feel and look your best - we only get one skin, after all!

Intense Pulse Light (IPL) photofacial is a popular laser light treatment that treats a wide range of pigment issues, including sun damage, age spots, and redness from rosacea. Using a bright, light-emitting device that is calibrated to target each patient’s skin concerns, a series of photofacial treatments can improve the appearance of tired, aged, or discolored skin in no time.

This type of treatment can be used on the face, as well as the neck, chest, shoulders, arms, legs, or pretty much anywhere else you are experiencing discoloration or problems. It is also commonly used to treat spider veins. The heat and light from the IPL device activate the skin’s natural healing processes without causing any unnecessary damage or discomfort. Your dermal tissue is sensitive and delicate, and while it may attempt to repair itself, sometimes we could all use a little outside support. Collagen, elastin, and other skin-firming proteins are produced during IPL therapy, helping to reverse some of the effects of afe-related collagen loss.

The best part? You will likely notice an improvement after just one 30-minute session. For best results, we recommend coming into Euro Image Med Spa for 3-5 treatments about four weeks apart.

The science behind a photofacial, or photo rejuvenation, is to use short, intense bursts of light to reduce redness and flushing, target pigment issues, and address other skin concerns. The bright light passes through the different layers of the epidermis, bringing pigment-producing cells to the surface and smoothing the appearance of uneven pigment or texture. The combination of light-heat energy destroys pesky melanin-producing cells in the various layers of the skin, bringing problem spots to the surface.

• Sun-damaged skin

  IPL photofacial to the rescue! Sun is your skin’s worst enemy, but a photofacial combats the damaging effects of UV rays by drawing out discolored cells, exfoliating the skin, and encouraging natural collagen production.

• Acne, be gone!

  Even adults get acne or have to deal with the lasting side effects of acne scars. This procedure will get rid of harmful bacteria, reduce inflammation and redness, and encourage the skin to gradually renew the outer layer to reduce the appearance of scar tissue.

• Stop your skin from prematurely aging

  Aging is a natural part of life, but sometimes our skin can get the best of us and age before we’re really ready! Studies have shown that people who regularly treat their skin with photofacials have younger, healthier-looking skin.

A photofacial’s age-fighting properties are just one of the reasons it’s become a favorite treatment for people of all ages. Whether you have a specific problem area or are looking for total skin rejuvenation, contact the Euro Image Med Spa team and let us help.
